Aaron Livesy's explosive Emmerdale exit

Aaron Livesy is set for an explosive 'Emmerdale' exit when he is caught up in a blaze at Cain's garage

Aaron Livesy is set for an explosive 'Emmerdale' exit when he is caught up in a fire.

The troubled mechanic - who is portrayed by Danny Miller - will become trapped in the village garage after Adam Barton (Adam Thomas) torches the business thinking that Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) is inside as he believes he's responsible for the death of his dad John (James Thornton).

However, Adam is left devastated when he realises Aaron - who narrowly escaped being burned alive in the garage last April - is stuck in the building.

A show insider told the Daily Star newspaper: "Adam feels sick that he may have killed the wrong man.

"Fans will be on the edge of their seats when he races into the burning building to try and save him. There will be a real nail-biting moment when you are left wondering whether either will get out alive."

Adam's rescue attempt sees both men get out of the inferno alive, but Cain finds out the fire was started deliberately and sets out to find out who was responsible for it.

But to save Adam any further grief, Aaron tells Cain he started the blaze and decides to leave the village.

Danny announced last year that he is quitting the ITV1 soap in spring 2012 to "explore other roles".

He said: "It has been an incredibly difficult decision but after three years playing Aaron and much soul-searching, I am eager to explore other roles.

"I am so grateful to 'Emmerdale' for the opportunity that I have been given and have loved every moment. I will miss everyone enormously but this might not be the last we see of Aaron."
